"Mater" Magic

Salads are ridiculously easy once the tomatoes come ripe. My neighbor went on vacation just as his were coming in - big mistake. He asked me to take in his mail and water the plants in exchange for some ripe tomatoes. Since mine are still a-coming but not yet really here, I jumped at the chance to be a helpful neighbor.

Slice a ripe tomato. Top it with a little yogurt or creme fraiche. Plop on a spoonful of pesto and presto!
